What do coast guards do exactly And what's the job where you jump out of helicopters into open ocean to save people Because that's what I wannado but I don't know if that's the same as coast guard?

This is the same job portrayed in the film "The Guardian." The training and actual job is extremly demanding both physically and mentally. The Coast Guard has 5 main missions: Maritime Safety, Maritime Security, Maritime Mobility, National Defense and protection of Natural Resources.

Difference between capped and uncapped commission?

Well 'Capped' commission relates directly to employment which requires you to wear some form of headgear. Hence the term 'Capped'... Whereas 'Uncapped' employments firms allow you use your discretion on whether to wear head attire or not..

Hope this helps! The answer above is incorrect. A "capped commission" means that you can only make X ammount of money for your efforts as a sales person. An "uncapped commission" means that there is no limit to your earning potential... the more you sell the more money you make. Capped commissions offer no incentive for a sales person to over-achieve or outperform his/her counterparts.

Not if it's an over the counter drug, but when in doubt see your HS or if you're taking a Urinalysis be sure to write whatever you're taking in the last column of the form the Urinalysis Coordinator will have you sign or write "see medical record'. Now if it's not an over the counter drug, and you've been prescribed it for another reason, no you can't take it and you could be discharged for a drug incident.

Can this oil spill affect the east coast drinking water?

No.

There are some pretty dire predictions out there, premised on unlikely events. The inland rivers and canals of the panhandle of Florida flow out to the sea, so the spill would have to go against the general current. I won't say it can't happen, but the chances are very remote. Hurricanes coming from the east would generally pull the spill out into the center of the Gulf, not inland given their counter clockwise rotation.

Coast Guard Boot Camp difficult?

The transformation from civilian life to military life is a little chaotic at first, but after the initial processing it becomes pretty routine. The way I saw it... the first three or four days were the worst. You get off the bus and regret ever talking to that recruiter with his painted on smile. Then after about a week you get used to the routine and seriously... after what feels like a couple days, it's all over. I liked bootcamp. I actually enjoyed basic training a lot. It's an experience in my life I won't ever forget. Don't sweat it dude. Just be respectful and "live by the chow". Literally, if you count down from each and every meal (3 a day) your time at Cape May flies by. It's a blast.

Who is ultimately responsible for the security of information in the organization?

I think this is best answered by the old aphorism that security is everyone's responsibility. In practice there is likely to be a member of the Board who has the overall accountability and this person may be termed a Senior Information Risk Owner. Alternatively it may be the Chief Information Officer, the Chief Finance Officer or the Chief Executive Officer who has this accountability. Such officers are usually advised by experts in security and these may fall under the overall management of a Chief Information Security Officer. For best practice, everyone in the organisation should be given an appropriate level of security awareness training.
